According to Ptolemy's model, he, too, believed in a geocentric Universe and that the planets and stars were perfect spheres, though Earth itself was not.

He further thought that the movements of the planets and stars must be circular since they were perfect and, if the motions were circular, then they could go on forever.

<h3>What is comets and shooting stars?</h3>

Shooting stars are very different from comets, although the two can be related. A Comet is a ball of ice and dirt, orbiting the Sun (usually millions of miles from Earth). ... A shooting star on the other hand, is a grain of dust or rock (see where this is going) that burns up as it enters the Earth's atmosphere.

The action of rotating around something like for ex.. Child A stands in the middle of a room while Child B goes around Child A, Child B is rotating around Child A. Another ex. is; The earth rotates around the sun every 365 days the earth is rotating or going around the sun in a circle.
